  1. trurl's post in Unable to connect to GUI for longer than 2 minutes was marked as the answer   
    Is this from another computer on your network? Does it also happen if you boot GUI and try to access using attached keyboard and monitor?
  2. trurl's post in Launching OS causes no display output was marked as the answer   
    Can you see if your router has given it an IP address? Maybe it is working headless and just the video output isn't for some reason? 
  3. trurl's post in Blocked at 100 mbps instead of 1 gbps was marked as the answer   
    Have you checked all ports, plugs, cables on all switches and routers involved? 1G degrades to 100M if one wire isn't working.
  4. trurl's post in Read errors - OK to replace with larger disk? was marked as the answer   
    Does look like a disk problem on disk 6. You might run an extended SMART self-test on it.
     
    But if you want to replace with a larger disk, that seems like a good idea also, since you need more capacity.
     
    Do any of your other disks have SMART warnings ( 👎 ) on the Dashboard page?
  5. trurl's post in Docker Service failed to start.... was marked as the answer   
    cache is full
  6. trurl's post in Screwed up drive replacement was marked as the answer   
    This is less than ideal, because normally I would ask for you to post the output of this command:
    xfs_repair -nv /dev/sdg1 It may not all fit on one screen for you to photograph.
  7. trurl's post in Flag RAIDZ1 and other mirrored pools as protected was marked as the answer   
    Mirror counts as protected, but if you have some files for the share on unprotected storage, it won't be green.
     
    You can see how much of each disk or pool is used by each share by clicking Compute... for the share on the User Shares page.
  8. trurl's post in Docker Failed to Start > Cache drives missing? was marked as the answer   
    Diagnostics shows 6 slots for a pool named cache with nothing assigned to any of them. All the connected disks are part of the array, except for a single 2TB nvme which is unassigned. If there were ever any other attached drives they didn't show up for the reboot.
  9. trurl's post in Usb Flash Creator never finishes was marked as the answer   
    If it hasn't finished after a few minutes eject and see if it works. If not try

  10. trurl's post in Check boxes disappeared was marked as the answer   
    I assume you mean from the Unraid webUI?
     
    Then you won't have the functionality you are asking about. Simple as that.
     
     
  11. trurl's post in Help understanding how Unraid writes files and improving network performance when moving data was marked as the answer   
    If writing to an array with parity, they can't be independent even if the destination is different disks, because parity is realtime and has to be updated for each.
  12. trurl's post in device disabled contents emulated after reapir was marked as the answer   
    Just let it finish disk5 and if that goes well we can do disk3.
  13. trurl's post in 3rd drive failed during rebuild of 2 others was marked as the answer   
    Yes, New Config. But if there were any writes to the emulated disks, those writes would be lost if you don't rebuild the data. Sounds like that might be your best solution anyway, at least rebuilding parity wouldn't write to any disks except parity.
     
    In any case, probably better to try to identify the problem before trying to fix it.
     
    Attach Diagnostics to your NEXT post in this thread.
  14. trurl's post in Errors on Cache Drive in syslog - post containers crashing was marked as the answer   
    ssdpool is corrupt and has gone readonly, and that corruption caused docker.img corruption.
     
    Disable Docker in Settings until you get this resolved.
     
    The usual advice is to backup pool contents, reformat, restore.
     
    You will have to recreate docker.img and reinstall containers from Previous Apps.
     
    Have you done memtest lately?
  15. trurl's post in Raid array ignoring one of the disks? was marked as the answer   
    I understand why all of the data is going to the first disk, because it hasn't hit highwater yet, but will soon. What I don't understand is why any files are on disk3.
     
    What is the purpose of this user share?
    y-----e shareUseCache="only" # Share exists on cache, disk3  
  16. trurl's post in Tower kernel: SQUASHFS error was marked as the answer   
    See if it runs without your config for a while maybe there is some corruption with those files you are restoring.
  17. trurl's post in I need help and I don't know how to ask for it was marked as the answer   
  18. trurl's post in USB Flash Drive Died - How to Recover Array? was marked as the answer   
    If you haven't changed any disk assignments since then.
  19. trurl's post in Confuse SMB shares (system) was marked as the answer   
    You want to delete System, not system. Unraid is not confused. It is showing you the correct names. Your screenshot is showing the contents of System, the file you want to delete.
     
    If you notice, the dates on the 2 different docker.img in the 2 different shares (system and System) are different. The System share is older and not being used.
     
    Also, it won't let you delete the file in system because it is being used.
  20. trurl's post in Lost some data.... I think. Maybe its something else? was marked as the answer   
    Looks like more might have been added to the lost+found on the emulated disk1.
     
    If you rebuild disk1, the result will be exactly what the emulated disk shows. If you rebuild to a new disk and keep the original as is, you will have both to work with to recover files.
     
    The linux "file" command can help determine the type of data a particular file might contain.
  21. trurl's post in Disk 1 is unmountable after re-booting was marked as the answer   
    Disk1 mounted and plenty of data. Doesn't look like repair resulted in any lost+found.
     
    In future better if you post the results of repair. I assume you did it from the webUI, or at least got the command line correct.
     
    SMART for all disks looks fine. Looks like connection problems with disk1.
     
    Not related, your appdata, domains, system shares have files on the array.
  22. trurl's post in Very Slow Parity Check and Data Rebuild was marked as the answer   
    Connection problems with disks 1 and 2. Stop rebuild, fix connections, try again.
  23. trurl's post in Disk Replacement Issue was marked as the answer   
    Disk1 is not another disk. It is a disk already assigned to the array.
     
    Not at all how things work. Emulated disk4 works just fine as far as Unraid is concerned, and can be read from and written to. Quite possible a lot has been written to the emulated disk and all that would be lost if you don't rebuild disk4 to another disk.
     
    Perhaps more concerning, disk4 emulation would probably be broken if you now removed disk1 from the array, and so it wouldn't be possible to rebuild disk4.
     
    When I say another disk, I mean a disk not currently assigned to the array.

  25. trurl's post in having an issue updating Unraid to 6.11.5 won't boot after update. was marked as the answer   
    Prepare your flash drive as a new install of whichever version and see if that boots. If it boots, copy your config folder from your backup, and see if it will boot in SAFE mode
